Shuttle transfer from Bordeaux

I am travelling to St Jean pdp on the 7th May 2016 via Gatwick to Bordeaux. It seems as cheap and much faster to get a private transfer if 3 or 4 people can share. Is anybody arriving in the morning at Bordeaux Airport ? Does anyone have the name of a good transfer company? Thanks , Richard.

Hi Richard. Go on the net and look up Express Bourricot.
All is explained there (and Caroline who speaks English well) can cover your needs.
If you look at other transports Bordeaux is specifically mentioned with train stations and airports.
Happy planning.
 
Bus service from the airport to the train station twice an hour which takes about 30m and many choices of trains (SNCF) to Bayonne for 2 hours, then onward to SJPdP by train or Express Bouricot, depending on your schedule.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
We are thinking of flying to France via London to Barritz then train to Sjpdp ,is it easier to get there from Bordeaux ?
 
It is easier to get there from Biarritz. Take the bus from the Biarritz airport to the Bayonne railroad station/Gare SNCF Bayonne. At Bayonne take the local TER line 62 railroad to SJPdP.

Bon chemin and Buen Camino!
